Look it up! You might do so. And you might say "that's not true." Well, that's probably because you looked it up in a book. Next time, look it up in your gut. That's where I looked it up. My gut says it has the most nerve endings.

The gut has more nerve endings because the brain is full of nerve beginnings.

I read someone theorise (don't remmeber who, might've been here on cfc), that Trump kinda is planning to get a bunch of people, have them say ridiculous things on his behalf, and then throw them under the bus basically

It's a hard call. Trump has both streaks: fiercely loyal to people he deems to be sufficiently supportive of him/more than willing to cast off anyone he comes to regard as a liability (Manafort, Lewendowski).

But in the role of press secretary specifically, he'll need an ongoing willingness to say ridiculous things on his behalf, whether that's Spicer or a Spicer-successor.

New on the clown front, Dingbat Don signed two executive orders "to revive the Keystone XL pipeline." They basically instruct various agencies related to the pipeline approval process to follow the law (duh). There doesn't seem to be anything in either one of them constituting an "order" of any kind, and certainly nothing that amounts to much of anything, but between the big fanfare signing ceremony and the release of the actual text shares of TransCanada rose 3.5%.

It would be really interesting to know who bought TransCanada this morning and sold it this afternoon.

Political Compass: 4.5/-1.95Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it. - George Orwell

"Intelligence agencies should never have allowed this fake news to 'leak' into the public...Are we living in Nazi Germany?"-- Trump tweet

"They sort of made it sound like I had a feud with the intelligence community."-- Trump on the media, speaking at CIA in front of Memorial Wall

"People [who were listening to Trump] spend their lives trying to figure out what's true, so it's hard to make the case that the media created a feud with Trump. It just ain't so."-- CIA veteran John McLaughlin

"He used the scene as a prop for another complaint about the media and another bit of braggadocio...That Trump made no mention of those whom that wall memorializes, made his performance doubly offensive."-- Paul Pillar, former National Intelligence Officer in charge of the Middle East and South Asia
